Where do you buy your bulk ammo?

Plus 1 for GunBot. Sort the results by price per round to find the best deal at that moment.

I have been happy with Target Sports and LAX, especially back during the ammo drought. As I recall, they both maintained decent stock at decent prices when many others were gouging.

I will add to the list Selway Armory. The OP is about 9 mm, and all the places listed are competitive with 9 and other standard calibers. Selway sometimes has something I can't find elsewhere, and their customer service is excellent. I order from Target and Selway, checking both to see what deals they have.

I have been using targetsportsusa for quite awhile now.. Great prices.. free shipping on bulk purchases.. Can't beat that..

Althought I just saw in shooters outpost in Hookset NH they have a few cases of 1000 of Blazer Brass 115gr 9mm for 179.00.. I can pick up locally so no shipping fee..

In the Los Angeles (Inglewood) area, LAX Ammo has the best quality ammo for the price. Its roughly around the same when buying online to other companies. ( I think)

I start with ammoseek.com and go from there. Will buy locally if on sale but some of the claibers I use are not readily available locally.

Just make sure you do your due diligence ordering online. I just got burned first time ordering from a company I never dealt with before. They advertised the ammo as recoil managed but what they sent me was regular ammo. Not happy but I can still use it so I didn't raise a stink and it was about the same price I pay anyway.

If you catch Sportsman's Guide with a free shipping coupon, you can sometimes get a really good deal there. SG Ammo is good as well. I just use one of the gun search engines to find the best deal. I have saved a ton over the years by purchasing a case at a time online as opposed to a box or two at Xmart.

I've bought from luckygunner and other websites before, but the shipping costs are a killer. Seriously, bulk ammo is heavy.

Now I go to gun shows. There's a wholesaler who shows up for a lot of the Western US shows (Miwall out of Grass Valley CA). It's pretty similar to web prices on a per round basis, but you don't have to pay for shipping.

Don't buy bulk ammo. I buy bulk components and load them the brass I collect and save.

Currently I dont re-load.. I buy bulk.. Assuming I can get 1000 ronuds of 9mm brass for 179.00 I was wondering what the cost savings per bullet would be comparing bulk purchase to reloading.

I am thinking if it is a pretty good savings I may just re-load..



Thanks

We buy all of our semi-auto ammo at Orr Tactical https://www.orrtactical.com/ . Alan is a retired Marine Col. and a friend of ours. His company has begun supplying several agencies and ranges in the area. I don't really pay attention to shipping as he's about 10 minutes from the house.

As they don't make revolver ammo, I usually get that from LAX Ammo.

I start with Ammo seek and go where ever that takes me. Then pick a vendor I'm confident about using. Have used Selway quite a bit lately. Their location makes shipping to AZ much less than many other sellers.

Targetsportsusa.com offers free shipping if you buy a case. They are usually competitively priced.
